Yes. I felt that 6GB would be too much, but the 4GB version kicks a$$. Hey , can I ask you a favor , kryptoman68 ????? If you can , can you "cut" the video , song to song , and put them on media fire ??? I've searching all day for a good DL , and 4Gb is just too much for my poor computer to process . it can't even handle a 1Gb download :(. If you can do it , I'd be VERY thankful , Or , at least ell me where to find a good download , that is not too big Terra's download is already split into 3 parts, so it isn't a single 4GB download. I am afraid I cannot help with the splitting because I lack the software equipment to do that. But I suspect someone will do it sooner or later.

I love your description of Brian's solo. However, scientist, doctors, etc., have a reputation of being excellent musicians. Many of them choose technical careers instead of music, but excellent techie musicians are all around us. I don't have statistics, but those of us who do music for a living are frequently in awe of those who do these two things that seem opposite so well, particularly in a case like Brian. And related: a few years ago I read that in the U.S., among med school applicants, music majors had the highest acceptance rate. Go figure. I am all on board your fantasy song-writing ship. That really got me thinking. Since currently rock is mostly looking bleah, maybe such a collaboration could be a game changer in rock history. Maybe Adam would want to sing rock if there were great songs, but it's mostly dullsville out there. He and Brian could be the saviors of rock and Adam could be the czar of pop (is that title taken). Holst, you’re a marvel of information that I’m finding particularly fascinating in light of the developing phenom of Adam & Brian that I think I see. I remember a Japanese study from a ways back about how grade school kids learned math better when they listened to music while doing their work. The study tried to determine what music produced the best results for the students. IIRC, they determined it to be Bach. You’ve given me even more fuel for my fantasy of Brian writing new music for Adam’s voice! I like to think of Brian, hanging out in his backyard observatory, gazing up at the night sky and hearing music in his head. So much music! When he wrote a song like “Who Wants to Live Forever” that he himself couldn’t possibly have vocalized while he was writing it, Brian must have been able to literally hear Freddie in his head singing that melody. That song (and others) are so obviously written for Freddie’s voice and style alone. It took Freddie’s voice to give sound to what was in Brian’s head, and that Brian himself could not do. Now, when Freddie died, what happened to those songs in Brian’s head? Freddie’s gone, but the music in Brian’s mind didn’t die. It would be like having all this glorious sound trapped in your head with no ability to give it voice. When Beethoven became deaf, but he continued to hear every note of the music he wrote in his head, what if he hadn’t been able to play an instrument to produce that music he heard? Now, here Brian finds himself sharing a stage with a young man with a nearly inhuman voice, a man who could once again give wings to Brian’s songs, set them free from his mind, and send them soaring again, back out into space just like his guitar solos. At first I was puzzled when I hear that Brian said Adam had a voice like nothing he’d ever heard before. The longer I thought about it, the less puzzling it seemed. Yes, of course, Adam’s voice has many similarities to Freddie’s voice, and obviously Brian hears that. But he, like maybe no one else, is finely attuned to hear every minute difference and nuance that makes Adam’s voice different than Freddie’s. I imagine Brian might have a rather substantial songbook in his head, written over these many years since he lost Freddie, but written for Freddie’s voice nonetheless. I bet he’d like to hear those songs in Adam’s voice. I believe this will happen, because it seems nearly inevitable.

I just love this comment from the Queen online forum: phil July 2, 2012, 2:35 p.m. It's not very often I leave comments on any forum,but on this occaision I felt I just had to. I've been a Queen fan since my early teens in the mid seventies. I've seen Queen on several occaisions since the early eighties,performing either as a group,solo,with or without Freddie. I watched the stream with no expectations and an open mind. Adam Lambert was brillliant. I had only ever heard his name before because of American Idol,I neither liked or disliked him. Opening the show with the creme de la creme, and performing them as he did won me over in less than five minutes. I am now soooo glad I have a ticket for the Hammersmith ApolloAnother verdict :-D :2tears: :2tears: :2tears:
